1.2. Features, Key Advantages, and Main Applications of LES-5160 

Features 

  Simulate Ethernet cable Cat-5e in different lengths 

  Support easy-to-access Management Webpage, allowing users to view system status, set the 

simulating length and upgrade firmware/FPGA 

  Multiple LES-5160 chassis can be cascaded for system management 

  Replaceable redundancy power modules for AC & DC power 

 

Key Advantages 

  Provide the network environments under various cable lengths, saving the cable deploying work 

in practical 

  Provide reliable long-distance connection 

  Provide cable simulation function of a very long distance, saving plenty of space for placing the 

real cables 

  Web management 

 

Main Applications 

   Test for different cable length simulations in laboratories 

  Test for multiple DUTs with long cables simultaneously in production 

  Provide simple and convenient mass production software by Xtramus technologies. 

  Provide the API & Library files for development of other applications.
